I’m sure it’s in the eula.

Fact: it will stay in the eula if the playerbase doesn’t complain too much. It’s well within their rights and they have to collaborate with police on other internet crimes like say fraud. My credit card number was stolen from my bank’s database last year and they bought twelve months of wow subscription; I personally am relieved to know that wow is willing to work with law enforcement to stop stuff.

I think it’s for that very reason Blizzard might want to rethink its liberality with helping law enforcement.

The internet has made it a lot easier to con people, and if Blizzard is so willing to be forthright with private information like that, the company itself becomes a target.
